Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★★ 5 stars Why is it that I can’t seem to be able to write a review for The Fifth Season for so long? I’ve finished it at the end of April, now it’s August, and lo and behold – the review has not materialized. …Why? I’ll tell you why. Because when…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★✬☆ 3.5 stars Carrying on with my Anne readalong, I was a bit late to read the second part. That’s mostly due to the fact that at first it completely failed to draw me in. I felt like it’s just filler up to like a third of the book in! Where’s all the…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★✬ 4.5 stars Oh, Anne! How I wish I had known I’d love your story so much – then I would have not postponed reading it for so long. A big thanks to Jackie B. @ Death By Tsundoku and Jane @ Greenish Bookshelf for finally giving me a nudge to read this.…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★✬ 4.5 stars Emotional review coming up. Get your napkins ready! When I requested this title, I was excited, because hey – a rock’n’roll teens memoir? Written by someone whose parents were actually musicians, bohemians? Man, that sounds good. Who wouldn’t want to read that? Then when I let it sit for…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★✬ 4.5 stars This review has been due for a while, I’m sorry, Emma Newman! (haha…) But here we go. Brother’s Ruin was a book I’d been waiting to read like no tomorrow! I was sadly denied an advance copy, so I had to ultimately wait for the release (like all mere mortals… kidding!),…

So we are finally here today with the long-awaited interview with Kate Moore, author of The Radium Girls. As Kate takes off on her tour of the US with her book (which I urge you not to miss), we will be reading about the whys and hows of this book coming to life. Are you excited??! So let’s get down to…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★☆☆☆ 2 stars Received ARC for review Man, do we have some deep literary shit here. Been reading this since September, and was it a tough cookie. Parts sparked my interest, and then… the stories would get so mixed up I wouldn’t know what to make of them. When I stumble upon books…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★★ 5 stars They were called The Girls With Radioactive Bones. There were newspaper headlines such as ‘Living Dead’ Win In Court’ about them. And all that – almost a hundred years ago. I’m going to tell you a very painful, sad, but strong story of fighting for your rights, for justice,…

So last week, in my review of Beside The Music, I promised you an interview with the author, BJ Knapp. Happy to say that I’ve got the interview questions right here and I’m going to share them with you in just a few seconds! But first of all, let’s meet our lovely interviewee. Although we already know that BJ Knapp a writer, there’s…

Check out on Goodreads Get at Book Depository ★★★★★ 5 stars The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane sounds like just another pretty name, when you first spot it. It brings promise, as does the author’s well-known name, Lisa See. A promise of secrets, twilight and fantastic cultures it might take you too. I’m going to tell you that it delivers. Brace yourselves…

Goodreads average 3.85 ★★★★✮ 4.5 stars This has got to be the coolest spot to write a review. (I’m on a train to another city, to teach a class there.) And for a cool spot we need a cool topic. And I think I’ve got one. Rock music cool enough? I got Beside The Music at Story Cartel, one of the reviewer sites. It’s not…

This blog post has been eaten up by the evil server-killing monsters on the unfortunate day of Jan 24th, when my blog has been offline for *gasp!* around 24 hours for the first time. I am reconstructing it through my GR review (which is thankfully almost the same, cause it was that one time I decided to be lazy and keep…

Hello again, my lovely readers! I know I promised the review for The Bear And The Nightingale, but that’s still brewing, my lovelies. So sincerely sorry! I want to make it a good one… But in the meantime, I’ve knocked one more block off my huge ARC mountain from last year, so let’s talk about that one instead. I’m trying to…

Hi everyone, today I’m finally going to review Faithful by Alice Hoffman. Originally, this was the first book I read this year. But I was having one of those “book too good to write review” things again. And now I’ve reviewed Throwing My Life Away, but still haven’t reviewed Faithful. Tut tut, Evelina. Actually, this was the book I read…

So I’ve been putting this one off for quite a while. Because sometimes, when you read a really, and I mean REALLY good book, you’re just afraid your review will not do it justice. I still think that. But, despite that, I have decided to finally get to it and write the best review I can muster, because I just…

So I read a really enjoyable book this week. It was one I got for a voucher my friends gave me for my birthday, which was ages ago, but I only spent it last week. I got two books, one of those was The Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto. This is a book I’ve wanted to read basically ever since I…
